After Midnight

Used to pull in the driveway about a minute to twelve
Mama on the front porch about to raise some hell
Yelling "Better get inside
Nothing good happens after midnight"
She said "There's fools on the highway drag racing their cars
Ain't nothing open 'cept them road neck bars"
Might get in a fist fight
Nothing good happens after midnight

There's something 'bout that ol' moon, makes people crazy
Boys act like they've lost their mind, girls forget they're ladies
Don't nobody act like they should
Don't you know that nothing good happens after midnight

When I turned eighteen and I went off to school
It was time to find out if what mama told me was true
And she was so right
Nothing good happens after midnight
They put down the beer, break out the 151
Got a pack of honeys dancing in the back of the truck
The kind that I like
Nothing good happens after midnight

There's something 'bout that ol' moon, makes people crazy
Boys act like they've lost their mind, girls forget they're ladies
Don't nobody act like they should
Don't you know that nothing good happens after midnight

Letting down their hair, swinging it around
Don't look a thing like a sleepy little town
People waking up and we're still throwing down
Get down

There's something 'bout that ol' moon, makes people crazy
Boys act like they've lost their mind, girls forget they're ladies
Don't nobody act like they should
Don't you know that nothing good happens after midnight
After midnight
